<br />property, an application shall be filed following the usual procedLU�es. If a vai7ance is not
<br />approved, the property cannot be considered for acquisition.
<br />3. Appraisal: Deteimining Purchase Price: If the EDA chooses to continue with the
<br />acquisition, a fee appraisal shall be ordered at the EDA's expense and the result shall be used
<br />in determining the amount of the purchase price to offer to the interested participant. The
<br />independent fee appraiser shall be carefully insh�ucted to document in specific tei7ns the
<br />conditions of the property including details regarding structural condition and floor plan. The
<br />acceptance of these conditions in the market place sl�ould be discussed in the report. The
<br />appraise�'s value jLidgment sho�ild reflect these conditions. A negotiated price considerably
<br />below the assessor's market value may be accepted without an appraisal on a case by case basis
<br />if the interested parCicipant concurs.
